Abstract
Esta tesis expone como a lo largo de varias centurias el cambio en la vida y la religiosidad de las mujeres, en su mentalidad y devoción, tuvo su reflejo en el uso del salterio. Las diversas transformaciones sociales influyeron en todos los ámbitos alterando la concepción de la vida cotidiana, y afectando con mayor intensidad a la devoción femenina, cuyo reflejo se aprecia en el empleo de los diferentes libros de oración. La evolución general de la espiritualidad cristiana estuvo determinada por una mayor intervención de los laicos, afectando principalmente a las mujeres que mostraron una peculiar espiritualidad centrada en la penitencia y el arrepentimiento. Nuestros objetivos han sido analizar la conexión entre la religiosidad femenina, principalmente monástica, y el salterio; ahondar en la importancia de la liturgia, el Oficio Divino y los libros litúrgicos, y desde este planteamiento averiguar el uso y percepción del salterio, el libro más utilizado en la devoción privada medieval. También establecer porqué un elemento cómo el calendario tuvo una interconexión tan importante en la liturgia, la vida medieval, y la oración. Nuestro propósito es demostrar que el entorno en el que se desarrolló la devoción femenina hizo que se refugiaran en la oración del salterio, principalmente en el ámbito monacal, y cómo algunos de ellos fueron específicamente dirigidos y confeccionados para, y por, usuarias femeninas...
This thesis exposes how over several centuries the transformation in the life and religiosity of women, in their mentality and devotion, was reflected in the use of the psalter. The various social transformations had an influence in all areas, altering the conception of daily life, and affecting female devotion with greater intensity, the reflection of which was seen in the use of different prayer books. The general evolution of Christian spirituality was determined by a greater intervention of the laity, affecting mainly women who showed a peculiar spirituality centred on penance and repentance. Our objectives are to analyse the connection between feminine religiosity, mainly monastic,and the psalter, to delve into the importance of the liturgy, the Divine Office, and liturgical books. Starting from this approach, we will find out and deepen our knowledge of the use of the psalter, the most popular book in medieval private devotion. Also, we will establish why an element like the calendar had such an important interconnection between liturgy, medieval life, and prayer. Our purpose is to show that the environment in which female devotion developed, caused them to shelter in the prayer of the psalter, mainly in the monastic realm, and how some of them were specifically directed and made for, and by, female users...
